A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Zoe Curtis, I am currently a student in my sophomore year at Faith Baptist Bible college, majoring in Elementary Education. I worked as a camp counselor this last summer, but I have been a teen volunteer years before that. I have helped in elementary classrooms for the last roughly four years, along with babysitting in the summer! I love working with kids and I am more than willing to help wherever you need it! I am a college student, so I will need flexible hours that go with my class schedule. :)

A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Riley! I’m 25 years old and recently moved to Des Moines from the Kansas City area. I have over 7 years of experience in childcare with over 2.5 years of nannying in addition to 4.5 years of early childhood education. I have a passion for working with children & find that children thrive in an environment that allows them to both explore and learn while also creating safe boundaries and a consistent routine. Children thrive from consistency & we’ll set boundaries. Each child grows in their own way and I love being apart of a child’s development & being a beneficial factor to that.
